Center for Behavioral Health

About the Facility

Behavioral Health Group (BHG) is an opioid addiction treatment center in Reno, Nevada, a short drive from Yori Park. BHG approaches opioid use disorder (OUD) by using a broad range of services that connect each client to the services they need most to sustain recovery. They serve adult clients and their families. BHG's treatment philosophy is rooted in more than stabilizing clients with medication. Their staff sets clients up for success through traditional counseling services that help them sustain sobriety, identify potential triggers, and develop healthy coping skills. These services include:

Outpatient treatment, a form of day treatment, is the least intensive level of care available. Rather than live at the facility for an extended period, clients visit the facility on a regular schedule throughout the week. During visits, clients participate in therapy, which takes place in individual, group, and family settings.

Outpatient treatment is ideal for clients who have previously completed a higher level of treatment or who come from a stable background.

The use of medication as part of substance abuse treatment is called MAT. During MAT, the client will meet with a comprehensive medical team to determine if MAT is appropriate. BHG uses methadone for MAT, which is approved by the FDA.

All medication use for MAT is closely monitored by staff.

Treatment

Alcoholism

When a person is unable to control their drinking despite negative effects in their life, they are experiencing alcoholism (alcohol use disorder). Recovering from alcohol addiction typically requires professional intervention such as alcohol rehab in Nevada. This may occur in a residential program, intensive outpatient program, partial hospitalization program, or support groups. Recovery typically begins with detox and continues long after rehab with ongoing supports.

Drug Addiction

When you enter drug rehab in Nevada, you receive professional assistance to remove drugs from your body and cease your body’s need for the substance. You learn coping strategies and receive support to prevent relapse and enjoy long-term sobriety.

Mental Health and Substance Abuse

If you're in Nevada and need assistance with both mental health and substance abuse, dual-diagnosis rehabs may offer the comprehensive care designed to meet your specific needs. These specialized facilities typically combine evidence-based therapies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and experiential therapies like art or equine therapy. By integrating both aspects of your mental health, you’ll drastically increase the odds of long-term recovery.

Opioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Levels of Care

Outpatient

Outpatient rehabs provide addiction treatment aligned with clients’ unique schedule and evolving needs. Many programs offer evening, night, morning, and weekend services to accommodate clients who are working professionals or full-time caregivers. They also provide a full continuum of care, including psychotherapy, recovery-focused life skills training, and, for clients in alcohol and/or opioid recovery, medication assisted treatment (MAT).

Medically Assisted Detox

Ridding your body of alcohol and drugs in a medically supervised environment is known as medically supervised detox. During this period of inpatient care, you are monitored by a team of medical professionals whose job it is to help keep you as safe and comfortable as possible while addressing any withdrawal symptoms. Medically supervised detox is typically the first step in the recovery process, and usually takes an average of 5-7 days.

Intensive Outpatient

Clients receiving addiction treatment in an intensive outpatient program (IOP) typically have completed inpatient rehab or have chosen to forgo hospitalization following detox. The high-level care provided by intensive outpatient rehabs is particularly suited to clients in early recovery, those in crisis, and those at an elevated relapse risk. Clients engage in nine to 20 hours of treatment per week on average. Common services include psychotherapy, recovery education, holistic therapies, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).

Clinical Services

Group Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
